• What is happening in the Broadband Market in EU?
A. Context (I)
- High growth of broadband connections.
- Which leads to greater capacity consumption.
- Which leads to greater speeds.
- This is also happening because of the “multiscreen explosion”, ie increase of devices in the home.
Data from “Broadband access in the EU: Situation at 1 July 2013”, on Tue, 25 Mar 2014
5 Nov 3 -‐ 2014
• Operators are investing heavily in deploying networks: – Outside the home: 3G/4G. – For the home: growth of BB subscriptions : DSL, Coax,
FTTH.

• Ironically, the increase in nominal speed (beyond 20Mbps) is creating more dissatisfaction in some cases: – For Wifi connections (most common), there are typically
problems with speed , particularly in EU thick-wall housing – For PLC (sometimes used as an alternative by Operators),
there are many interferences – For Ethernet Cat 5/6/7 (which works the best), the problem
is often times resistance by house owners to cabling • Operators need to find an easy way to “match
expectations” between what they sell and what the customer perceives.

• The Challenge for EU Operators is therefore to deploy Home Networking cost-efficiently, assuring customer satisfaction (ie, real speed), and in all cases (ie, topologies): – Telcos are finding a significant number of “on-the-spot rejections”,
which have a very high cost to the Operators
– In EU, there is a significant proportion of thick-wall cement housing, which makes it much more difficult for WiFi to penetrate.
– Also there are lots of houses without telecom infrastructure which makes it difficult to have easy installations.
A. Context (VI)
11 Nov 3 -‐ 2014
• POF can provide a solution for Operators to deploy Home Networking:
1. Cost-effectively: reducing the number of rejections
2. Assuring satisfaction: real speed
3. In all cases, complementing the installations where other technologies are not possible.

C. Potential Market (I) EU has near 30% BB population penetration
Note: 29,4 % BB penetration corresponds to 76% of household penetration.
This 30% corresponds to 24% of NGA connections (includes low speed con.)
5.4% are connections at least at 30Mbps And only 1,2% are 100Mbps or more.
15 Nov 3 -‐ 2014
C. Potential Market (II)
High speed connections are increasing quickly and faster
16 Nov 3 -‐ 2014
C. Potential Market (III)
And this is going to be much more in the next years:
• The Digital Agenda for Europe set two objectives related to fast and ultrafast broadband: – Fast broadband (at least 30Mbps) should be available
to all households by 2020 (Mandatory),
– 50% of homes should subscribe to ultra-fast broadband (at least 100Mbps) by 2020 (Desired).
• Additionally, main operators in EU are currently testing POF at technology and commercial levels.

Conclusions
• The opportunity is real: there is potential demand for the BB Household market.
• Operators need to find an easy way to “match expectations” between what they sell and what the customer perceives.
• We expect POF to have a important role for EU BB Operators in the next few years, both due to Digital Agenda incentives by EU and technical and commercial demand by Operators.
